🕌 If you can't buy your dream house, just build it. That's what Ferdinand Cheval, a postman in the south of France, decided almost 150 years ago. And he built it until the last stone. He created a massive palace including each and every one of his fantasies and dreams. He made what he thought was the "ideal palace". To this day, you can still visit the eccentric building in Drôme, it is open to the public. What would be your ideal palace?
